6 About My Work / Ilkka Halso From 1990 to1998 I have been working with subjects concerning scientific illustration and methods of natural history research. I have had an attitude of a playful scientist, with no obligation to the truth or to gain results. My work has essentially been a small investigation of the visual world of science. Lately my interest has turned to focus on the various relations between architecture/technology and nature. De Pterygotis (1990), Or Manual for Insect Construction is a portfolio of offset prints. It has been made following old (17th century) books on science. At that time scientific practices were in their infancy of what has today become accepted as scientific methods. The illustrations in those books were, to say the least strange and populated with human figures, dragons and little devils. I have taken similar kind of liberties in ordering my insect collection. The portfolio contains photographs of single parts of dried insects ordered in nine squares in a strict order. The viewer can continue to compose other pictures by reordering pieces in their mind. Evolution (1992) This series consisted of an exhibition of eight large b/w photo- composites. In these I recycled one cat s skeleton into eight animals, all at a different evolutionary stages. The figures are presented in a two-dimensional projection of animal skeletons. Cultural Landscape (1994) These works consisted of five large photographic pieces of agricultural landscape they are the kind of maps that describe the ground s surface down to the smallest details. The maps are at 1/1 scale, and include markers and signs of human activities in nature. The work shows how a historical perspective also exists. Anatomical Cabinet (1997) This work was conceived as an installation simulating a museum. However, on closer view, the displays reveal something is not right, disturbing and unsettling. There is something wrong with the anatomical pieces of the skeletons and sections, parts of its anatomy are missing. The work shows how wholeness does not build a story according to accepted biological truths. It is a personal view on nature and museological science.

7 Excavations (1998) An exhibition about an archeological study process, complete with sites and objects. It focuses primarily on human behavior and the value of scientific research than on historical knowledge and facts. The exhibition contains site photographs showing the excavation in connection to nature and its surroundings. The latter part of the exhibition refers to the study and documentation process as well as a reconstruction of findings. Excavation sites are artificial and also reveal fictional aspects. Restoration (2000) This is an exhibition about man s attempt to repair nature with the means of technology and science. Large color photographs show objects of nature (trees, rocks, fields) surrounded by scaffolding and covered with plastic. They are nature restoration sites. Cube (2003 ) In the summer of 2003 I was asked to make an environmental installation during Aesthetics of Agriculture conference in Lepaa, Finland. Cube works are documentations of the installation as well as independent works of art. A DVD-video shows whole building process in fast rewind in 15 minutes. A strange building appears on a wheat field, fades and finally disappears. Museum of Nature (2004) I visualize shelters, massive buildings where big ecosystems could be stored as they are found today, in the present. These massive buildings protect forests, lakes and rivers from pollution and, more importantly, they protect nature from the actions of man himself. At the same time, I study different aspects of man s relation to nature as though a rare, unique and endangered place. ilkka.halso.net
